If you can get Kings, wisdom and sanctuary in the same 5-man, you may have too many paladins.
why not? Retribution paladin, holy paladin and a protection paladin makes an awesome setup.
Just add a mage and a warlock and you're set to steamroll any heroic.
Once you're properly geared for it, yes. But a tank that's just barely geared for them would do well to bring as much CC as possible.

Alright cool I'll work on those!! Btw, how about my chest? Should I change it?
If you can maintain 490/102.4% with it, I'd keep it, and the shoulders. The 15% mana savings for consecration is huge. As the rest of your gear improves, start swapping out the hybrid gems with solid stars.
Your next upgrade will be

from Nightbane, or
http://www.wowhead.com/?item=33522
if he doesn't give it up. I'm using the latter one, and it's superior to the 100-badge versions (for reasons I detailed in another post).
But, whatever you do, replace your gloves and your helmet with the Felsteel pieces ASAP. Get the matching pants, too, since the next upgrade from there requires revered rep with KoT.

Oh, so I should get the whole felsteel set? Also, you're saying that the next upgrade is from KOT? I am still neutral with them! Again thanks for the tips, I'll be looking out for the three items you mentioned, it shouldn't be too hard to get. And should I worry about the socket bonus? Or should I just mass +12stamina gems?
Another question about JC: The +18 stamina unique-equipped gem... can I only have one on each item or in total?
Unique-equipped means one in total. If you socket two of them in different pieces and wear them both at the same time, you'll only get the +18 from one of the gems.
KoT sells the Timewarden's Leggings, which are an upgrade from the felsteel piece. I'd recommend the felsteel legs in the meantime, since it will make it easier to run heroics in the meantime.
As far as socket bonuses are concerned, the only ones that matter are the ones that improve your defense/avoidance.

I just got the plate boots you told me to get.. and they don't really seem like that big of an improvement compared to my green ones, which could get 2-3 sockets. BTW, I can't find anyone to make me the felsteel items :(
Believe it or not, they are the best pre-kara tanking boots available, since nothing else at that level comes anywhere close as far as dodge and defense are concerned.
I just checked your armory, and it looks like you have the helmet and gloves. If no one's making the pants, group up with a blacksmith and start farming Arcatraz.

I think you should be set, personally. As long as you've got decent healers (2 healers sitting around 1400 or 3 healers with an average of 1000 each probably) you'll be golden.
Oh - I noticed you have Glyph of the Gladiator. I'm not certain, but you might need to go with Glyph of the Defender, even though that sacrifices some stamina; otherwise I think you're under the uncrushable cap; Warcrafter is showing you at 100.76% avoidance with Holy Shield up currently, whereas GotG puts you at 102.44% with HS up. Or just something give you a smidge more dodge/parry/block.

Grab these:
http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=25086
http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=27914
and put
http://www.wowhead.com/?item=29534
on your legs.
http://www.wowhead.com/?item=29186
for your head
Get 2
http://www.wowhead.com/?item=24033
(for belt)
All that will put you at uncrushable... and you should be at roughly... 11400 or so health. Good e nough for lower kara... until you can get some good kara tankin drops... or (even better) badges for the badge gear.
All of those that I mentioned are good ways to quickly improve...(provided you have the funds...)
edit: i would say grab
http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=25072
but you will (hopefully) replacing them soon with
http://www.wowhead.com/?item=28518
(besides at over 350 spell damage... you are over what you need to be at for kara... so the stam is better choice til you get the upgrades.)
